Artwork appears in many forms from paintings to podcasts, architecture to gardening, poetry, film, and many other mediums. Even standing out in nature, we can see the artwork of the Divine reflecting back at us. There is inspiration all around if we allow ourselves to see it.

Was I lost? It depends if lost means you don’t know where you are or if you don’t know how to get where you want to be? I was a little bit of both but not ready to eat humble pie!

First, my brother (who passed away) asks me when I am going to visit him. Then, I am commandeering a boat on a lake, trying to find and rescue my daughter.
